More quotes by Rebecca Hall
My mum's American. She's from Detroit.
Rebecca Hall
You either are a good director or you're not.
Rebecca Hall
Sometimes I can spend months doing things to make sure that my instincts work correctly, but ultimately it's still instinctive.
Rebecca Hall
I think acting can be very frustrating, and there's no experience that doesn't make you a better actor. So people may choose to explore their other talents.
Rebecca Hall
I've played an awful lot of repressed people.
Rebecca Hall
If you act scared, your body produces adrenaline.
Rebecca Hall
There are a lot of movies about misfits that are quite cool, that kind of glamorize it on some level. I think there are fewer films, certainly with a lady at the center, about the agony of what it's like to feel like you're not accepted, and you're different, and somehow you're weird.
Rebecca Hall
I always look for contradiction in a character.
Rebecca Hall
I've always had horrible Valentine's Days.
Rebecca Hall
I don't like talking about myself, if I'm honest.
Rebecca Hall
My childhood was very colourful, and I am very good friends with both my parents. We have no secrets.
Rebecca Hall
You don't get roles like leading character in 'Christine' very often because people don't really like women on film to be unlikable. I think Christine is lovable, but I don't think she's likable. I think there's a fundamental difference. For me, those are the richest ones. Men have had a career of doing those kind of things.

One of the great things about the 'Iron Man' franchise is that they employ fascinating actors who don't necessarily do action movies. Before 'Iron Man' you didn't associate Robert Downey, Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow with those kinds of films. There's an emphasis on repartee and wit.
Rebecca Hall
No family is sane, is it?
Rebecca Hall
I daydream about things I want to happen, but none of it is more complicated, most of the time, than just really hoping that the good parts and the well-written parts are the ones that turn up on my doorstep.
Rebecca Hall
I read everything. I've always got a book on the go and I'm really nerdy about it, I get through books and don't remember anything about them afterwards. But I read all sorts, from classic to contemporary.
Rebecca Hall
I suppose the reason why I like acting is because I'm curious about human nature, and the less I know about a character on the page, instinctively, in a way, the better.
Rebecca Hall
There's always going to be a separate version of you that people will create, and you have no control over it.
Rebecca Hall
I think loads of people see acting, when they're kids, as these magical stories that just happen within the context of the film or the play or the cartoon or whatever they're seeing. They don't imagine that there are actually people that go and do that for a living.
Rebecca Hall
I don't want to make vast generalizations about people who go into legal professions, but there are similarities in the barristers that I met and interacted with, in the sense that they tend to be highly eloquent, highly analytical, thinking people who have a very rapid-fire think-before-they-speak button, as it were.
